I can see the red, white and free in you. You light the night up like the moon. And underneath your clouds, I see the blue. . You're hopeless 'cause you tell the truth.
Since then I never feel helpless, recess, this mess if you do. And I find that even time well spent gets bent if you need it to. And we do. Well by now I've showed you how much I believe in the here and now and I wish that you knew.
I remember when every other day was bad. You were my brother, so tall was all you had. Sireno was dead but we had you instead. Now I remember our precious petting zoo.
I just opened up my eyes. And let the world come climbing in. It's all better now, things are gonna work somehow. If I just sleep another hour. Tried to reach you at your mom's.
Well this is just between us. but between us let's get high. . In pictures I have seen her. and to see her is truly fine. . She's on fire She's on fire.
For reasons I don't know I treated you so cold. I wish I had those times again. Cause something that you said keeps ringing in my head. Someday you're gonna wanna come back and you're gonna wanna treat me fine.
Not too smart, just out of school. A teachers pet and modern fool. Talked about being a freelance broker. But the police caught him tryin to choke her.
They call her Mississippi. But she don't flow to me. Spends her light on the Bayou. But she don't come to see. . She's the one that makes my dreams. They call her Mississippi but she don't flow to me..
Well I guess this is where I left my life. And all its operations. And I know that I will never get this twice. With all negotiations. . This feels like the place between what is and might have been.
Tried to write a letter. To tell you how I feel. But all I kept on writing. Was slipping on the tears from the day. When I was young and brave. Now all these hotel lobbies are filled with what's to me.
well there ain't much entertainment. in a town this size and all. so i got myself up, dressed for this arraignment. cause i don't think i'm ready for the fall.
This ain't about the things I've done. Where I've been or what I won. Stand on your corner a thousand time. Lose what I got keep what I find. It's about you.
Sweet dreams from Texaco. And I know your mind is on its way to Mexico. Sweet Jesus is on his way. To take you on his way down. . You get your fill of what you like.
I can hear you downstairs crying on the phone. Telling someone that I'm here but you still feel all alone. Maybe we were too young, goodbye, I've gotta go.
Sleepless nights and endless days. And all I do is promise to change my ways. Leave the lights on, you know I'll pretend you're on your way. You used to say that there's a time we all deserve to lose our minds.
I never been on a railroad. As many times as they pass me by. I never crashed in the desert or seen a rodeo. . I don't know much about the world wars or Vietnam.
So your tired of wakin up on empty. You left for something that ain't real. So you think a couple of familiar faces. is gonna turn it all around. You wanna be where they still pump your gas for you.
I hopelessly, helplessly, wonder why,. Everything had changed, around me, mhmm. I'd tell it to your face, but you lost your face along the way,. Can I say it on the phone, if I thought you were alone,.
If I could ride this slide into forever. What would I give to getaway. That pain that stayed. Seemed like forever. What would you give to getaway. . I know this is how I could be over you.
Well an airplane's faster than a Cadillac. And a whole lot smoother than a camel's back. But I don't care how you get to me. Just get to me. Parasail or first class mail.
